The study evaluated the effectiveness of controlled ovarian stimulation protocols with and without LH in 68 patients with low ovarian reserve undergoing IVF. Group 1 (n=30) received a protocol with combined r-lFSH and r-lLH, while Group 2 (n=38) followed a standard protocol with higher doses of r-lFSH. Both groups had similar baseline characteristics, but Group 1 showed a slightly higher number of mature oocytes and a significantly higher clinical pregnancy rate (40.5% vs. 34.3%, p<0.05). The findings suggest that using a protocol with combined LH can improve clinical outcomes in patients with low ovarian reserve.
